Yeah i kept it basic, and you definitely get some on the side with the saw. My solution is to put bigger things on that side that can get dirty. The other side holds smaller tools and the dust is really minimal over there.
Fair enough man. Looks good! I need to make an outfeed table for my table saw and a miter saw station. Finally moved into a new place with a shop that’s bigger than my old one a few years ago. Had to get rid of most of my benches except my main one when I put my stuff in storage
I was in the same boat. Had a huge shop with a 16 foot table until i moved about 4 years ago. So this table was a way for me to store a lot of my stuff in a much smaller space.
Damn, that’s a massive table! Bummer you had to downsize.
I was in à 10’x16’ uninsulated, unpowered shed in Alaska (ran an extension cord and learned which combination of tools would trip the breaker). Now I have a 20’x20’ two car garage (at least, most of it, have a freezer and water heater and HVAC), and it’s fantastic. Ran a bunch more outlets in it on multiple circuits when I bought the house a few months ago, so I never have to worry about tripping the breaker again.
lol definitely better than nothing. That was my one non-negotiable thing when we were looking for a house. Either a detached shop that was at least 20x20, or a 2 car garage that never had a car parked in it. My wife got her open kitchen, I got my garage :)
Compromised in other areas, and it took us 8 months and 6 offers, but we got it!
Unfortunately i live in Los Angeles where there are like 6 houses on the market at any given time for 10 million people. But we ended up with a pretty good place, can’t complain :)

I still miss that big shop :(

That sounds glorious! I’m sharing a garage with my wife’s car lololol. Better than nothing :)

Oof, LA housing is insane from what I’ve heard. Glad you were able to get a place with room for a shop!
